GETTING STARTED

POWER

Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity (+ and -).

NOTE Install batteries in the remote sensor before the main unit. Press RESET after each battery change. Do not use rechargeable batteries. We recommend that you use alkaline batteries with this product for longer usage and lithium batteries in temperatures below freezing.

shows when batteries are low.

UNIT LOCATION

Main Indoor temperature area

Remote Outdoor temperature area

REMOTE SENSOR

The sensor collects temperature readings approx. every 40 seconds and sends them to the main unit. The main unit can collect data from up to 3 sensors.To set up the sensor:1. Slide open the battery door.2. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity (+ / -).

Reset after each battery change.3. Select a channel. Make sure you use a different

channel for each sensor.

4. Close the battery compartment.5. Secure the sensor in the desired location using

the wall mount or table stand.

For best results:• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture. • Do not place the sensor more than 30 meters (100

feet) from the main (indoor) unit.• Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor)

unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture.

• Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects.

• Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold winter months as below-freezing temperatures may affect battery performance and signal transmission.

The transmission range may vary depending on many factors. You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results.

Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Disposable Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -30°C(-22°F).

Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily reduce the effective range between the sensor and the base station. If the unit’s performance fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal temperature range (i.e. no permanent damage

will occur to the unit due to low temperatures).

SENSOR DATA TRANSMISSION

The reception icon in the outdoor temperature area shows the status.

ICON DESCRIPTION

Main unit is searching for the sensor(s)

A channel has been found and sensor signal is being received

The sensor cannot be found. Search for the sensor or check batteries

To search for a sensor: Simultaneously, press and hold MEM and CHANNEL for 2 seconds.

NOTE If the sensor is still not found, check the batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location.

CLOCK

CLOCK RECEPTION

This product is designed to synchronize its date and time automatically once it is within range of a radio signal:

• DCF-77 generated from Frankfurt, Germany for Central Europe

and “- -.-”(Outdoor

temperature area)


EN

6

• MSF-60 generated from Rugby, England

The radio signal range is 1500 km (932 miles).

NOTE Slide the EU / UK switch to appropriate position for your location. Repeat each time you reset the unit.

NOTE Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes for first set up or when RESET is pressed. Once complete, the reception icon will stop blinking. If the signal is weak, it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid signal.

RECEPTION SIGNAL

STRONG WEAK NO SIGNAL

To enable and force a signal search:Press and hold for 2 seconds.

To disable the signal reception:

Press and hold for 2 seconds.

SET CLOCK

If the clock signal reception is enabled and a signal is being received the clock does not need to be manually set.

To manually set the clock:1. Press and hold MODE for 2 seconds.2. Press and to change the settings.3. Press MODE to confirm.4. The setting sequence is: Time zone, 12 / 24 hour

format, hour, minute, year, date / month format, month, date, and display language.

NOTE The time zone offset can be used to set the clock up to + / - 9 hours from the received clock signal time. If you have disabled the clock signal reception (i.e. manually setting the clock), do not set a value for time zone offset.

NOTE The language options are (E) English, (F) French, (D) German, (I) Italian, and (S) Spanish.

To switch the clock display:Press MODE to toggle between:• Clock with seconds • Clock with day• Calendar

RISING STEADY FALLING

ICE WARNING

If the channel 1 sensor falls between 3°C to -2°C (37°F to 28°F), flashes to warn you that the temperature is approaching freezing.

NOTE The warning will automatically stop if the temperature goes outside the ice-warning range.

HI / LO TEMPERATURE ALARM

An alarm can be set to sound if the sensor set to channel 1 records above or below a temperature of your choice.

To set alarm ON / OFF :1. Press and hold TEMP HI / LO . 2. Use and to select high / low temperature

alarm. Press TEMP HI / LO to confirm.3. Press or to set alarm ON / OFF and press
